NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

What TO do with criminals, or rather
how TO execute them after they are con.
vicsed and condemned 10 death Is q
moral and scientific mind. Out OF all
the plans proposed there are none no,
surrounded with horror. Recently the
question WAS ably and fully discussed
by New York Medical Society In
which there Vas sprinkling OF lawyer.
One OF them who hsd seen numerous
executions declared that hanging Was
bArtarous; he had not seen the neck
broken in . single instance, the correct
and u ost humane way he thought was
the gllllotine. The same speaker also
oppo SD electricity because the dyuamos
are expensive; prussio-Ac is objection
able because It's action IL Indefinite and
often produces commissions. and the
garrote cannot be dspended upon be-
cause Ii often fails. A number OF other
mem bers. however, did not look upon
the gallows Is being 90 very brutal. Is
was q good old-fAshioned way Of TAXI z
of q man, and OF al the methods Was
the one likely 10 have deterrent effect
on the criminal GLASSES. One speaker
believed tho offender should be pat in
to . dark room and suffocated with car
boni acid gas. Another would turn
him over to . sclentif, commission to
be killed as the interests o. science
might dictate. A lawyer present was
even more bloodthirsty than any OF the
doctorA He would take the criminal
10 some dismal cavern, and there hang
and bury him; no human being should
know his burial place; the crime should
be surrounded with all the horrors pos
sible; away with all hunanitArianisn
to such men; hang them, he said, and
II the rope breaks once or twice, strin z
them up again until you make success
OF It; and finally he would have no re.
portsrs hanging around; don't let them
elevate the scoundrel into o hero, and
dom. LEI weak. minded women IN daily
procession carry him f1rAl Offering,
and speak OF his good looks and fine
personal appearance.

II reports from Dover are TO be cred
tied, the Legislature is In q delightfully."-
do-no.hing condition. One wing Of the
Democratic party In the Ssa.e-the

hold the Senate, while the Bigss SAuls-
bury L )re- Her ert wing hold the House.
Bst~een the chickering's, iealousies and
I'll feeling OF the wings the prospect OF
reform legislation during the winter Is
very slim indeed. Strange as Il may
appear, ho viewer, the House as organ
lied in the interests OF the SAulsburys
leads the reform party, and Is in accord
with most OF the reforms reco u nendei
by Governor Blggs. The Ssnase will
be plsoed under the necessity OF accept
ing these reforms, or stand before the
people as obssructionists and opposed
to reform. Even should the Senate
originate o reform measure II would
stand q good chance Of being sntagc.
nizsd In the House. Had the Demo.
Gratis ever been heartily In favor OF re-
form there would be no trouble in al
agreement between the factions. The
Legislature was unanimously Demo
cratic in both branches In 1885, and
though an attempt WAS 10 sde TO increase
representation In New Castle County
only four members more In the Legis-
iature, the project was defeated. As
the Legislature is unanimously Demo-
cratic again in both branches, nothing
but defes. stares reform In the face.
We have ne doubt a sj1rity OF the

reform measures recon- mended by Gov.
